Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the problem. The business is worth a total of $120,000, and there are two partners who own equal shares. This means the equity of each partner is divided equally.
Step 2: Recall the formula for calculating equity when ownership is shared equally: Equity per partner = Total business value ÷ Number of partners.
Step 3: Substitute the given values into the formula. Here, the total business value is $120,000, and the number of partners is 2.
Step 4: Perform the division operation: $120,000 ÷ 2. This will give the equity of each partner.
Step 5: Verify the result by ensuring that the sum of both partners' equity equals the total business value ($120,000).
